After seeing the 33 with them a 29 with a couple 300's would be a cool boat.


I dunno. We'll have to consult with mike-b@d-spellering first.
We need to fit his consultation into the calendar with Harry and Bobby.

We will offer it with twin OBs. That is a reasonable rig with virtually no weigh gain.

Then we introduced the DDC patented step-design on 1999.

For the record we are building the 29 hull mold with the step. If you want a non-step single engine V-bottom in the 28-29 foot range you are back at Pantera I guess....:bestwishes:


Ummm...I don't think anybody would want to give Pantera any $$$ up front to build a boat after everything that has taken place. This guy should just except the "step" to life and buy the Active Thunder!!

I guess I still think this way and someone has changed there thinking . and I get all the grief

"""" Plus, honestly, the 28 runs so great as is there is not a real desire to mess with it! At 75 mph it is on 'rails'. With a step and 80+ it is a guess.

Hope this helps. Pat """""

If it helps at all Mike, and I can't believe I am saying this but....................
I would prefer a non step myself but really that's just cause I am a old phuck that don't know any better. With that said I would take a 33/37 with a step if I could justify it these days but I can't so for me a good ole 32 is in my future. I hope.........

If I were to have a 29 built I would want no composite and all wood construction, used TRS drive, carbed engine and of course a non-stepped hull. I guess I'm just old school.

Why not a pair of old teal blue Crusaders and shaft drives?

Coupled to an OMC Cobra outdrive?

You don't have any X-dimension numbers for that.
Can you think of a boat builder expert right there in Fort Lauderdale to consult? :drink: :party-smiley-004: :drink:

Well jezz, if yer gona go OMC and old blue crusaders might as well use the ones with the screw jacks in the front of the motor for trim adjustments.
